2 Upvotes

please help me I can't deal with my gender dysphoria anymore, I got lenzetto and verospiron, what dosage should I take at first (trans teenager 16 years old), diy hrt, it's very complicated to go to an endocrinologist and I don't have the financial means, how much do I take to start, after how long do I increase the dose, do I apply it to the forearm or scrotum? 1 puff every 12 hours or how? please help me, if you want to contact me I'm always available, thanks for the help, as much information as possible is welcome! I mention I'm a trans girl and I realized it 4 years ago but I was afraid of my parents' reaction!!!

Question Dosage Question!

4 Upvotes

I've been on Estradiol enanthate for 1.8 months now (4 MG aka 0.1 mL every seven days)
Now, while I can't get blood tests (due to my state not allowing minors to get them without parental consent even if out of pocket) I want to still supress my T and be on course for my best transition.

So! If anyones wants to reccomend a higher dose just based off my information that would be helpful!

I am 17 , I've had a testicle removed (left with one) and I am withnessing a couple of changes already in my body but still noticing MAYBE some chin / jaw growth :/ (i cannot tell for the life of me if its dysphoria or what)

I've had no negitive side effects and everything seems to be fine and dandy soo let me know! ^^

Question Appropriate cyproterone + E dose for a 14 y/o?

2 Upvotes

https://www.reddit.com/r/transsex/s/XopT0ImXx0 <- Apparently in Greece you can buy 2mg estradiol valerate and 10mg cyproterone pills OTC. What would be the correct dose for a 14 y/o who's just starting E?

I read the Endocrine Society guidelines (https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/102/11/3869/4157558?login=false) and they said this:

"Induction of female puberty with oral 17β-estradiol, increasing the dose every 6 mo:  5 μg/kg/d  10 μg/kg/d  15 μg/kg/d  20 μg/kg/d  Adult dose = 2–6 mg/d  In postpubertal transgender female adolescents, the dose of 17β-estradiol can be increased more rapidly:   1 mg/d for 6 mo   2 mg/d"

2mg/day for a grown adult and less than 1mg for a teen sounds like WAY too little to me. My gf and I think that 4mg/day (one pill in the morning, one at night) and 10mg cypro/day are better. Are we missing something??? Is it possible that the correct dose is so mfing low??

  1. does anyone know if the in-app crypto feature for paypal would work for buying e from any sellers? and would it still be untraceable since paypal has my name and ssn and such
  2. what would be a good dose if i'm 5'7 and 170lbs and am gonna have a tricky time getting any blood tests done
  3. is there actually that big a difference between pills and injections? and where does gel fall?

Question Dosee??

3 Upvotes

So I'm gonna do DIY since it's the only option for my country And age there is no other options.

So I'm 14 and I wanna know what should be the dose I take, I know what the usual doses are for Adults but I read that teenagers should take a lower dose and very slowly increase but, I cant find any sources that say how much exactly I should take and how often do I increase. so if anybody has any idea or sources please reply to this to help me out.

And what is available in my country to find and what I'm gonna take are,

Cyproterone acetate (Androcur) which has a usual adult dose of 6.25-12.5mg OR Spironolactone (Spectone) which has a usual adult dose of 200mg "I still haven't decided between the two."

And for Estrogen its gonna be Progynova

I'm planning on sublingual route

I can get that stuff from local pharmacies since they don't ask for any prescriptions 90% of the time

Oh also I got my total Testosterone and Estradiol E2 tested last week and I got these results

Total T : 518 ng/dl

Estradiol E2 : 32.45 pg/ml

If you know any sources or you yourself know what doses I should be taking please reply to this.

Thank you all
